In March, Jiang Xiaohua and her husband, Christopher Praetzas, packed up their life in Germany and moved to Taicang, a small city in east China's Jiangsu Province. But Taicang isn't just any city—it's now home to their dreams and the birthplace of their new baby! 🍼🏙️
\"China's car market is massive, representing about a third of global sales. With Chinese brands going high-end and embracing smart tech, we see huge opportunities here,\" said Jiang, who has spent most of her career in automobile manufacturing.
The couple spent three years diving deep into the Chinese market and its policies before making the big move. \"Taicang has a strong supply chain for the auto industry, including some German companies who were our partners,\" Jiang told China Media Group (CMG). \"There are also lots of resources and government support for start-ups to get up and running quickly. So, we chose to come here.\"
Their factory opened last June, and they're feeling the love! ❤️ With new measures making life more convenient for foreigners—like smoother work processes, better residence options, and easier payments—China is rolling out the red carpet.
\"Life here is getting more convenient every day,\" Jiang smiled. \"It's the perfect place for our family and our dreams.\"
So what makes Taicang the place to be? A blend of opportunity, support, and a vibrant community that's welcoming entrepreneurs from around the globe. If you're looking to ride the wave of the future in auto tech, Taicang might just be your next stop! 🚀
